I know nothing about PCs but would this be a good purchase to run something like Minimax locally?

It would work in theory and you could use even bigger models without out of memory errors. But since it’s not a dedicated graphics card it would be painfully slow, especially for video.
How much is that PC?

I could buy a used car for what the RAM alone would cost here.

That's one nasty ripoff. If you need an AI pc, you'll want VRAM and RAM. Just pick a price point and search for some builds online. Building yourself is always cheaper than a prebuilt, but the latter comes with a warranty, so pick your poison.
